With this battery it us approximately 2-3 hours unplugged. I usually almost always plug my laptop while in use. For the price, you cannot go wrong compared to the actual dell battery which is $150+,this battery does the job while saving money.

Maybe 2 hours on battery saving mode if your lucky. If battery life is a concern I'd look elsewhere. This computer is mostly a desktop replacement.

the battery like time is not as good as in some other computers, it is about 3-4 hours just using the word processor, and internet (browsing and email),

Depending on the amount of apps you have running at one time in the back ground and you amount of usage. In my experience between 15-20 hrs. And I'm a fairly heavy user.

Mine is good for about 4 hours. I guess it depends on how you have your laptop set up. I don't play games or watch movies, strictly read email and maybe hit facebook or pinterest.

It´s no more than 4.5 hrs. I looked at the customers reviews before I buy it so I knew the battery life had not the best average. But I´m still very happy with my purchase, its a great laptop.

Hi, about 24 hour or so. Iam using GPS and internet a lot so I cannot tell or sure. I was a bit disappointed at once, but its better then the one is bundled. I am using the old Nexus S that its self is draining battery.

With a Linux OS installed, the average battery life is approximately 3 hours if I just surf the web.

About3 to 4 hours. Battery isn't a strong point here. I didn't buy it to use the battery however, so I'm pleased with it. Really a grade A laptop. I'm sure this varies based on task and performance settings.

The battery life is about what you would expect from any other laptop. That is unless you purchase and extended life battery.

Hi. I have owned this laptop for a couple of months now and it is amazing. The average battery life I am getting while running wifi and having the brightness about 3/4 bright, I am getting 5 1/2 hours. With wifi off running regular programs like Word, Excel and Powerpoint, I am getting about 6-6/12 hours. Amazing battery life

It will depend of how you are using it, for normal use like internet browsing it last up to 6 hours, but for gaming or video I could experience 4 hours at full brightness. Overall the battery life it's very very good

In standbys or light use such as occasionally checking emails and answering phone calls the charge last me all day (14hrs). I get that with the original battery also. It is important to note that it took about 3 charging cycles to get this performance. Out of the box after original charge I only got 8 hrs, but in my case performance improved after more use. Heavy use gets me about 6-8 hrs depending on what I am doing.

I get less than 2 hours of use on a full charge (mainly using for internet browsing, email, and playing mp3). The battery also drains when it's not on. I have the 16 GB linux version with advanced desktop enabled. This seems to be common. I think most manufacturers exaggerate battery life a lot, if it's not a flat-out lie. So 2 hours or less of use unplugged with this device is probably the norm, if the manufacturer is saying 3 to 4 hours. My experience with most rechargeable mobile devices is that normal real world use will not get anywhere near what manufacturers state for battery life.

Where did you hear that? Of course not. I use mine daily and it usually lasts for 2-3 days based on my reading, web surfing and emailing activity. I let the battery completely run down after I first charged it and it lasted almost 11 hours. On average I get at least 10 hours of active use on it, but I usually charge it every three days.

Ive never burned the battery all the way down but I have done 2 1/2 hrs of 3D gaming on a single charge, so u should get a few hrs of web browsing and other minimally power intensive activities. (hope that helps)
